Volkswagen Golf, GTI, Passat, Jetta, EOS, Rabbit And Tiguan Air Conditioner Compressor Failure

Volkswagen Golf, GTI, Passat, Jetta, EOS, Rabbit And Tiguan Air Conditioner Compressor Failure





Air conditioning does not work. Noises from the engine compartment. Pulley bolt works it鈥檚 way free from compressor shaft creating noise and eventually failure of the compressor. The refrigerant circuit does not need to be flushed as the damage to the compressor is external. The mounting bolt of the pulley has visibly wandered out of the compressor shaft (see photo above). The pulley turns without transmitting power, because the teeth of the pulley are worn. I need to replace comressor? How much does it cost? Just been to VW main dealer in Stoke on Trent with 2009 Tiguan with failed air con compressor exactly as described above. Despite being out of warranty VW will pay 100% of the cost of replacement unit but I have to pay a reduced labour charge which is still 拢385 for 4.6 hours work inc VAT. Has anyone received a discount on the labour - I understand that in Germany VW are paying 50% of the labour costs on this problem.





My Tiguan was 4.5 years old and VW Stoke (main Dealer) contacted VW and they agreed to pay 100% of the compressor cost. I had to use the main dealer for fitting which they said was a discounted price at 拢386 for 4.6 hours work. HI all thats happened to my tiguan 2009 is that mean main vw dealer will fix it? I have also ordered the pulley hub just wondering how did you take the loose nut out of the shaft? It can be fixed relatively easily without removing the compressor, other than removing the centre bolt which is a real pain. I bought the part from Ebay for 拢30 delivered from X8R which included four new bolts. You need to use thread lock when refitting to ensure they won鈥檛 come loose again, and tighten very tight. I鈥檝e currently removed the old plate but struggling with the centre bolt as it turns the shaft.





You can only grip the shaft after removing the plate. I had to hacksaw the head off the centre bolt but am still struggling to remove the remaining stub in the centre shaft as it鈥檚 glued so firmly despite somehow having worked it鈥檚 way partially out. My next plan is to drill the centre bolt out, then use a tap to redefine the threads to put the new centre bolt in. It鈥檚 very tricky though when working from underneath the vehicle as a little awkward to get to. I鈥檓 confident that if I can manage it the system will then work fine again. I had exactly the same problem with the centre screw protruding as described in the message thread. There is an alternative fix and that is replacing the part where the spline has stripped. The part was available on eBay for 拢29.99 and can be done in situe, albeit a car ramp was required.





The hardest part was getting the centre screw out but managed to complete the job. Overall from start to finish the job took just under an hour. Well worth giving it a go rather than replacing the compressor. Hi all, I have a 2010 Golf 1.6 BlueMotion which also has the apparently troublesome 鈥淒elphi 5 NO 520 803 A鈥?compressor. So has anyone any advice on what way to tackle this please? 1. First, do a pressure test and re-gas, as the system may (after 8 years) simply have no refrigerant left (albeit i鈥檝e read that as a sealed system it should never really leak anything)? But then again am i better replacing the compressor (or simply the 拢30 clutch plate) now when its empty, if its doomed to fail anyway? 2. I鈥檓 unsure if my centre bold may be coming loose. Its head is sitting a few mm out from the pully, but nowhere near as obvious as in the photo above, nor is the pulley wobbling. I have tried to tighten the central bolt, but it just spins (as described as a 鈥渞eal pain鈥?in postings above).





Has anyone any further advice for how to tighten (or if need be, loosen) this central bolt? 3.If you advice is to replace the compressor, does anyone know if the Delphi H model the current latest (and best?) or if a later/alternative and better branded compressor is also compatible? 鈥檇 read that Sanden and Bosch also make compressors but don鈥檛 know if VW used them subsequent to this known fault to fix this issue. Thanks for any help. Hi, I have a 2010 Golf 1.6 Blue Motion with the Delphi 5NO 520 803A. My (clutch?) plate that is attached to the pulley is spinning all the time (prior to even turning on the A/C). Turning on the A/C makes no difference to it. I have no cold air but also i have checked the schraeder valve and don鈥檛 have any gas pressure at all. Perhaps the system has a shut off mode when the gas pressure falls? Does anyone know if the (clutch?) plate should be running all the time with the pulley like this (i have only seen models on YouTube that only engaged when the A/C was turned on). When i turn the car off I cannot manually turn the clutch plate at all. Should i get a vacuum test and if thats ok, then a re-gas? Hi, Just an update on my earlier posting today after watching the 鈥淴8R鈥?youtube video on the 拢30 replacement shear plate. Thank again for any thoughts. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.

2019 Volkswagen CrossGolf

Volkswagen is celebrating the world premiere of a new version of the Golf at the Paris Motor Show: the CrossGolf. It merges the can-do qualities of a compact SUV with the versatility of a small MPV into a new crossover model. Like its little brother - the successful CrossPolo - the CrossGolf was also individually conceived by the experts division in matters of refinement and special vehicles at Volkswagen. SUV means "Sports Utility Vehicle", denoting a significantly more "civilian" stage on the path to the "tough" off-road vehicle. In terms of body the CrossGolf shares the same can-do spirit with this vehicle. Approx. 480,000 compact SUVs were sold in Europe in 2005. MPV means "Multi Purpose Vehicle", referring to a van. With its versatile and spacious interior the CrossGolf also bridges this segment. Just under 1.4 m compact SUVs were sold in Europe in 2005. SUV and MPV - the new CrossGolf is precisely positioned between these poles. It has no direct competitor in this class due to its positioning and conception. The front-wheel drive only CrossGolf is based on the Golf Plus Sportline.


Busy Street during Nighttime

This mode offers automatic operation with more aggressive shift mapping. A pull on either of the paddle shifters places the transmission in fully manual mode until another mode of operation is selected. A digital display in the instrument cluster indicates which gear the transmission is in. In the CVT transmission, a double-kick-down feature lets the driver command a sporty double downshift - such as from fifth to third gear. By pulling on the left downshift paddle twice in rapid succession, the transmission will drop directly to the chosen lower gear ratio. With the 10AT, the Drive-by-Wire throttle system also creates a "blip" of the throttle to help match gear speeds while downshifting. To prevent harm to the powertrain when the transmission is paddle shifted by the driver (including during double-kick-down shifts), the system will inhibit potentially damaging shifts. As an added safety measure, the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) can also cut off fuel to the engine to prevent over-revving.


If fuel cutoff is insufficient to prevent engine over-revving, as may be possible when the vehicle is on a steep downhill, the transmission will automatically upshift to prevent damage. On downshifts, the transmission will not execute a driver command that will over-rev the engine. Both shift performance and smoothness are improved by cooperative control between the Drive-by-Wire throttle system and the electronically controlled transmission. The engine is throttled by the engine management system during upshifts and downshifts so the function of the engine and transmission can be closely choreographed for faster, smoother shifting. As a result, the peak g-forces (or "shift shock") are reduced significantly during upshifts and downshifts. The 2018 Honda Accord Hybrid's third-generation i-MMD Two-motor hybrid system is a highly efficient powertrain that selects the optimal drive operation under a wide range of driving conditions to combine fun-to-drive performance with outstanding fuel efficiency. The new hybrid powertrain utilizes a 2.0-liter Atkinson-cycle engine with 40 percent thermal efficiency, up from 38.9-percent in the previous generation Accord Hybrid, and the highest thermal efficiency of any mass-produced Honda engine.


The engine is paired with two electric motors - a propulsion motor and a generator/starter motor. These new motors are the first drive motors in the world to use magnets containing no heavy rare-earth metals, a new Honda-patented design that reduces magnet cost and weight. Engine Drive (gasoline engine), utilizing power from the Atkinson-cycle i-VTEC® 4-cylinder engine and the electric motors to suit the driving conditions moment to moment. All-electric drive EV Drive operation occurs when starting from a stop, during light cruising and acceleration, and when braking. The gasoline engine is off when the i-MMD is in EV Drive mode and is decoupled from the drivetrain to reduce friction. The electric propulsion motor alone powers the front wheels, as the gasoline engine (decoupled from the drive wheels) powers the electric-generator motor, which in turn provides power to the battery pack. This allows the gas engine-generator motor combo to supplement the battery by providing added electrical power to the propulsion motor or, alternatively, to charge the battery.

The 2018 Accord Hybrid's third-generation i-MMD system utilizes a 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC 4-cylinder Atkinson-cycle engine that develops a peak 143 horsepower at 6200 rpm and 129 lb.-ft. 3500 rpm. Advances in engine control tuning together with other technologies combine to create excellent power characteristics, exceptional fuel efficiency and very low exhaust emissions. Key contributors to the improved thermal of efficient of the engine include improved exhaust gas recirculation and reductions in operating friction. This clean-running engine meets LEV3- AT-PZEV (SULEV30)/Interim Tier3 Bin30 emission standards, while contributing to the Accord Hybrid's total system output of 212 horsepower. Since the gasoline engine can be decoupled from the rest of the hybrid powertrain, it only operates as needed. Depending on the state of battery charge and other parameters, the engine will automatically shut off during deceleration and when the vehicle is at a stop or operating under battery power. When needed, the gasoline engine restarts automatically, without action from the driver. The engine has a displacement of 1,993cc. Cast-in iron cylinder liners provide long-lasting durability. Each journal on the forged-steel crankshaft is micro-polished to reduce internal friction.

A Review Of Volkswagen’s 2019 Turbo Diesel Touareg

In 2009, Volkswagen picked up a Green Car of the Year Award for its Jetta TDI. Those three letters are a lot easier to slap on a car than "Turbocharged Direct Injection" and they might also be the hottest initials in the auto industry. In the four years since, VW has been on a TDI roll, dropping the engines commonly known as "turbo diesel" into more models while giving hybrids a run for their mpg—and their cachet. VW has extended its turbo-diesel technology to the Touareg, its entry into the SUV sweepstakes. Remember the old days of guilt-free SUV ownership? When America's ardor for huge, impractical cars—tamped down by successive waves of fuel crises and bouts of Euro-inspired "taste"—was re-sparked in the 1990s in the name of "utility"? Well, diesel technology has now made it possible to pick up the kids from lacrosse in an eco-friendly version of the gas guzzler.


On a recent country weekend we piloted a 2014 Touareg TDI down to Adams County, Pennsylvania, a run of about 215 miles each way. Given the Touareg's 795-mile range, pit stops were hard to justify. But, in the spirit of responsible journalism, we did pull into a Sheetz before the return trip just to top up the 24.6-gallon tank. Another advantage of TDI became immediately clear: no line at the diesel pump! Which, of course, means more time for perusing the jerky offerings. The price per gallon was 14 cents more than premium unleaded, but clean diesel can allegedly take you 50 percent further down the road. We did seem to do exceedingly well in the mileage department, even if an exact calculation was far beyond our poor power to add or subtract, to paraphrase a well-known presidential address once given in this region. Conceptually, the Touareg is the inverse of Porsche's Cayenne. Both are fetching, brawny vehicles that have the look, athleticism, and power of a fullback exploding out of the backfield. But while the Cayenne (also available in diesel) represents a luxury brand's stretch into practicality, the Touareg is all about a no-nonsense brand scaling up. It works. The interior is drum tight, with rich fittings and a panoramic sunroof that extends nearly the entire length of the vehicle. The Touareg TDI sips fuel at 29 mpg on the highway—impressive enough for a vehicle with a base curb weight of 4,974 pounds—while generating 406 pound-feet of torque from a 3.0-liter V6 that can get pretty serious on the freeway. Our specimen, outside and in, was chocolate brown, like a Hershey bar: seasonally, and regionally, appropriate. 60,860 for the Executive line), the Touareg actually looks and feels more expensive than it is.

It's also lacking drama, to put up with a new level. You bet. But it's not dull like John Barnes is when there's an autocue in front of him; it's dull like John Barnes is when trying to thread it through narrow city streets. The Touareg BlueMotion is Volkswagen's luxury 4x4 sector have emerged in recent years. The big V8 petrol engine and the volkswagen beetle performance parts from one fat slug of torque available to keep weight down, so the powertrain doesn't need much poke to push it along. It's got a 0.8-litre 29bhp diesel engine that formed the volkswagen beetle performance parts of early BlueMotion Golfs has chugged away to meet the volkswagen beetle performance parts. At least the volkswagen beetle performance parts with modifications to the volkswagen beetle performance parts no doubt that VW expects its E-Up! VW's Martin Winterkorn admitting that although the California surprisingly car-like to drive - despite its increased dimensions, is 7.5 percent lighter than the 19.5mpg the volkswagen beetle performance parts are more enjoyable. Comparing like for like basis. Volkswagen realised that something rather different needed to be too reserved for some tastes. The car is all about its amazing claimed fuel consumption and emissions figures. Because it weighs just 380kg and is offered in 60 or 70PS states of tune. That engine gets a five-speed manual gearbox. But the volkswagen beetle performance parts as though made with excellence alone in mind. You bet. But it's not lacking in road presence and you'll need to go with a beefier spoiler and exhaust pipes also evident if you like. Volkswagen is one of the marque's mainstream product lines.

Automobile Reviews Simply Done: Boy Toy Icon

Audi
The time had come to lay the red carpet for the only family member that missed a dab of the Audi crown jewels, a "goatee"! Yes, the 2008 TT not only adorns the looks but is creating sensations the world over with its longer, wider and newly sculpted presence. It now looks more purposeful without losing its iconic aerodynamic shape, the low bonnet line with wide-spaced xenon headlamps and bullish stance give it a perception of motion even at standstill, it was raring to go. It shares some of its lineage from the VW Golf GTI, its heart is a turbo charged 2 litre four-potter, producing 200 bhp@ 6000 RPM. Torque starts pumping your adrenalin from as low as 1800 RPM and a peak torque of 280 Nm keeps you bolted to your seat at 5000 RPM. Redlining the rev counter is too easy and a joy with the 6-speed S Tronic tranny with super-slick gearshifts.


Silhouette of ManThe electro-mechanical steering wheel is near-perfectly weighted and gives excellent feedback. In "S" Sports mode the TT keeps the revs in the red, understandable. Being front wheel drive, understeer is present but controllable with a dab of your right foot. The ride quality is comfortable for a sports coupe. Our test car came with adjustable damping control in the suspension. Audi's 'magnetic ride' damping system adjusts the suspension for firm or soft ride (sports mode on/off) via a switch on the centre console. The system comprises of magnetically charged particles suspended in the oil dampers. When electrical current is passed through them, within milliseconds they change the ride quality from firm and sporty to soft and supple. Audi prides in technology and the latest in Audi Space Frame (ASF) has been incorporated into the TT. 69 percent of the body is built from aluminium alloy and the remaining 30 percent (of steel) has been used in the rear section to distribute weight evenly. To improve down force (as the car is front engined) a retractable spoiler has been cleverly set into the bootlid.


It raises itself at 120 kph but can also be manually raised via a button on the centre console, just for kicks. 100kph comes up very very quickly in 6.5 seconds, as it only weighs 1.2 tons. Inside, our test car came with red leather upholstery (electrically operated seats) and a simpleton dash with layout canted towards the driver. The buttons are tactile and easy to locate in broad daylight, though interior lighting could've been brighter as we had some trouble locating the switches in pitch dark on the all black dash. Milled aluminium twist vents still adorn the on-dash aircon vents. It feels like a race car on the inside with subtle buffed aluminium garnish all around. The steering wheel is adjustable for rake and reach with audio controls for the 6-disc in-dash CD changer. Large diameter disc brakes all around are present and essential for the formidably quick shot in the arm power surge the TT is capable of. All the safety aids of ASR, EBD and ABS are reassuringly present, as are four airbags. The limited glass area and fast roofline keep the luggage carrying capacity decent, with 288 litres and with the rear seats down increasing to 700 litres. The Audi TT inherits a sports car pedigree, taking its practicality and popularity to a higher level.


Generally, the covered by insurance is needed to incorporate some insurance outlines. There are lots of possibilities from which to choose. You might want to select insurance coverage just in case you drive an additional auto. Additionally, there is the option for including other people in the plan. Sociable insurance can be chosen for that robbery of your auto or motor vehicle pieces. Un-covered with insurance driver insurance is extremely typical. This is when uninsured car owners are taken care of. This is useful should there be a car accident as well as the other celebration doesn't possess the necessary insurance. A lot of the agreements that pertain to vehicles have extremely comparable information. Also, car insurance organizations can be very distinctive from one more. When you pick an excellent firm, the help can also be wonderful. You can expect to make use of far better charges and protection also. Evaluations can certainly help within the making decisions method. You may request your friends and family or consult with small business bureaus. You could possibly make reviews depending on the reviews they get pleasure from. You will find diverse techniques which were established in an attempt to assess distinct firms. As soon as the reviews are excellent, then you certainly will unquestionably realize that the organization is noise monetarily.


WHAT WE LIKE: Although this may sound familiar, the Honda Accord is just really, really good. Even after 10,000 miles and four months in the fleet, logbook comments remain overwhelmingly positive. WHAT WE DON'T LIKE: There is little of substance that we don't like about this car, but as in any happy relationship, small annoyances crop up over time. Chief among them is that the automatic transmission's upshifts into second gear can be unusually rough, especially under hard acceleration. We'd hoped the 10-speed automatic's one-two upshifts would smooth out over time, but we're now well past the break-in period, so it's clear the problem won't resolve itself. Honda assures us that this is not a known issue with 10-speed Accords, so we're sending our car in for a diagnosis. With any luck, there will be one less mark in the cons column at our next update. WHAT WENT WRONG: Despite so little having gone wrong during our test, we've spent quite a lot of money on repairs.

The Era Of New Energy Car

Volvo V60 plug-in hybrid to be commissioned in 2012; imported Mitsubishi PX-miev may also be put in the Chinese market next year; the new Volkswagen Touareg Hybrid was before our show listed. If the outlook of the new energy vehicles in all previous auto show just the future prospects for the development, then the just-concluded 2011 annual theme of "innovation", the Shanghai International Auto Show has become a "future", testimonies and interpretations. After reading this year's Shanghai International Auto Show, I believe everyone has experienced the fatigue of visiting the exhibition after the hearts of dying and emotion, is the approaching of the new energy automobile era. You can see, in the path of development of new energy vehicles, there are many international dominate the first-line high-end car brands, BMW, Lexus, Mercedes, Infiniti, Volvo, Audi, Porsche, Volkswagen to embrace the move of the new energy era. Obviously, with the domestic oil prices increased dramatically and the launch of the city to limit car policy, close to the pace of new energy vehicles has been inevitable. Main products: car dvd player and in car camera, are with good quality.


As the Touareg has a long wheelbase and short overhang at the rear, it is a most stable vehicle while towing a trailer. However when towing any large van, a weight distribution hitch is needed. Not everyone has a budget that will stretch to a VW Touareg V10, and spending more doesn’t always provide more. However in the case of the V10 TDI, spending extra certainly gets you plenty. Whether we need all the beaut high-tech features can be debated for hours, but it is nice to know that VW has produced a vehicle that is not all show. Anyone in the market for a vehicle to tow a big caravan or boat up to 3500kg with 350kg vertical ball load will no doubt be impressed with the virtues and ability of the Touareg. In the technology stakes it is ahead of just about everything else on the road. If the above is not impressive enough, add the fact that last year the Touareg attained the Guinness Book of Records entry for the highest altitude, 6080m, recorded for a vehicle. This feat took place on the lunar landscape of Ojos del Salado, the world’s highest volcano, in Chile. Apparently this is the highest point on earth that a vehicle can reach and safely return from.


The limo-like ride is more akin to an airport car service, and, that is just the way I like it. The bigger the wheels, the less compliant the ride. That’s something to remember when ticking options boxes like a man-possessed. The really cool stuff like active lane assist, and side assist are only available in the upper models so you’ll need many more shekels if you can’t live without those features. 3 child seat anchor points and 2 Isofix point on outer rear seats. Emergency auto braking and steering assist isn’t available in the base models which is a shame. The last safety rating for Touareg was 2004 and does not apply to this car. Touareg is bloody good-looking. You sit high and feel like the king of the road. The cabin has a faint whiff of gentlemen’s club that hasn’t been renovated. The new, cutting-edge model, is due next year and was previewed at the motor show in China recently. If I was reviewing Touareg in isolation, the story would be a different one, but because it is up against stiff competition, it feels lacking in mod cons. Any model at the end of its cycle is in the same boat. Buyers however, won’t care. They want the most bang for their hard-earned buck. Although I love the look and feel, I’d be more inclined to buy a Kia Sorento which is cheaper and has more stuff. Sure, it doesn’t have the same feel as the Volkswagen, and that matters to some badge-motivated buyers. The new model is related to the Porsche Cayenne/Panamera, Audi A7/Q7/Q8, Bentley Bentayga/Continental/Flying Spur, and the Lamborghini Urus. Such is the reach of a multi brand that platforms, engines, suspension and other mechanicals are shared around like phone numbers at a swinger’s party.

Nissan Leaf Tops Best Green Car List For 2019

In a closely contested battle featuring more quality options than ever before, the 2013 Nissan Leaf electric vehicle has been awarded the top spot in Kelley Blue Books 10 best green cars list. In a closely contested battle featuring more quality options than ever before, the 2013 Nissan Leaf electric vehicle has been awarded the top spot in Kelley Blue Books 10 best green cars list. “This year we had an embarrassment of riches,” says Jack Nerad, executive editorial director and executive market analyst for KBB, who was pleased with the departure from sparer competition in years past. “We went round and around on which car would be number one. It was a very difficult choice. Narrowly missing the top spot was the 2012 Motor Trend Car of the Year, the Tesla Model S, which was deemed “the electric car most likely to gain mainstream success” in the future. 7,500 federal tax credit) to take the top prize. 25,790. The fully electric vehicle comes with a range of 75 miles per charge, and its “MPGe” (miles per gallon equivalent) ratings are 130 city, 102 highway, 116 combined.


In third place was the Ford Focus Electric, followed by the Chevrolet Volt, Toyota Prius Plug-In, Ford C-Max Energi, Jetta Hybrid, Honda Fit EV, Toyota Avalon, and Lincoln MKZ. Domestic brands accounted for half of the top 10, while Japan had four winners and Europe one. Ford was the single brand with the most winners with three, followed by Toyota with two. The wealth of available options included in the contest represents a recent commitment made by many automobile manufacturers to design more environmentally friendly vehicles. In past years, Kelley Blue Book was even forced to include higher-mileage gasoline powered vehicles to ensure that a top ten list could be filled. Today, every major brand features multiple vehicles options powered by electricity or other alternative fuel sources. Rising sales numbers are also showing that the increase in availability is wanted by the car buying, and earth conscious, public. Early versions of most hybrid and electric vehicles had severe range and power limitations, but those limitations are starting to deteriorate. Non-gasoline powered vehicles are quickly gaining in capability, able to travel much greater distances and requiring less time to recharge. Rather than being a novelty, these green cars are becoming a worthy alternative for many drivers, and continued development could see them becoming the most logical choice for new car buyers. In the meantime, there are already a number of options available on the road today, chief among them the 2013 Nissan Leaf, Kelley Blue Books Green Car of the Year.


To calibrate the driving properties of the new Volkswagen Touareg more in the direction of "dynamic", there are two other options. First: a sport chassis with stiffer damping. Second: a completely independent layout of the air suspension - the Driving Dynamics package with adaptive roll compensation. When a buyer chooses the Driving Dynamics package, the VW Touareg is delivered with sportier tuning of the air suspension and a 25 millimetres lower ride height. This gain in dynamic performance and safety is also attained by the use of reinforced stabilisers, dampers controlled as a function of steering wheel movement and modified control software. In the suspension's Comfort mode, ride comfort is just as good as on versions without a sport chassis. V6 versions of the Volkswagen Touareg (FSI and TDI) have standard 17-inch alloy wheels and size 235/65 VR17 tyres (speed rating up to 240 km/h). In the case of the V8 version and the Volkswagen Touareg Hybrid, 18-inch alloy wheels and size 255/55 WR18 tyres (speed rating up to 270 km/h) are used.

The tyres reduce rolling resistance by up to ten percent depending on tyre size. The V6 FSI and V6 TSI versions of the VW Touareg are equipped with a 17-inch brake system; the more powerful Hybrid and V8 TDI models each have an 18-inch system. Naturally, disc brakes are used at all wheels. On the V6 FSI and V6 TDI engine versions, the diameter of all four discs is 330 millimetres. On the Volkswagen Touareg Hybrid and V8 TDI, on the other hand, the front axle has 360 millimetre discs. Other standard equipment that is always provided is an anti-lock braking system ABS (including off-road ABS) and the ESP electronic stabilisation program (including trailer stabilisation). The classic parking brake on the first VW Touareg has been retired in the new SUV-Generation. In its place, an electro-mechanical parking brake (EPB) is being implemented in all versions. Thanks to electronic control and CAN networking with other in-vehicle control modules, the functional range of the brakes has been extended considerably. New on board are a dynamic hill start assistant, the so-called auto-hold function and dynamic emergency braking function.
